Map description not working?

LefterisKoumis

Hello @MNIT-Kitty-Hurley @KellyHutchins  I turned on the Windows 11 narrator and I access the site at:

https://kellyhutchins.github.io/DevSummit2023-A11y/demos/MapDescription.html

but all I hear is the chrome version and that the zoom tool is present and not the map desciption which is

"The map summarizes the count, and rates, of accidental deaths in each state."

Am I messing something or it is not working with the win 11 narrator?

Thank you.

@LefterisKoumis Unfortunately Narrator doesn't support the aria-describedby attribute when the element is not an alert or input text, so its a limitation of the tool. Supporting information on the attribute can be found on a11ysupport.io.

However, the aria-describedby attribute is supported with JAWS and NVDA (free) on Windows, with partial support on MacOS' VoiceOver.
